Radio communication system, radio communication terminal, radio communication apparatus, and communication method

A radio communication system having a plurality of first radio communication apparatuses configured to use a first communication scheme, a second radio communication apparatus configured to use a second communication scheme, a first radio communication terminal configured to use the first communication scheme, and a second radio communication terminal configured to use both the first communication scheme and the second communication scheme, wherein

• the first radio communication apparatuses include at least one first radio communication apparatus sharing a backbone line with the second radio communication apparatus and at least one first radio communication apparatus not sharing the backbone line with the second radio communication apparatus,
• the first radio communication apparatus has a transmission unit configured to transmit information indicating whether the first radio communication apparatus is sharing the backbone line with the second radio communication apparatus,
• the second radio communication terminal has a selection unit configured to select the first radio communication apparatus sharing the backbone line with the second radio communication apparatus or the first radio communication apparatus not sharing the backbone line with the second radio communication apparatus as a connection destination based on the information, and
• the selection unit of the second radio communication terminal, in order to carry out a radio communication by employing the first communication scheme without carrying out searching by employing the second communication scheme, selects the first radio communication apparatus sharing the backbone line with the second radio communication apparatus as a connection destination from among the first radio communication apparatuses.
